I offer in-person counselling and supervision in the Latrobe Valley, Gippsland, and provide flexible online support via Telehealth to individuals and professionals across Australia. I have a strong background in supporting people through trauma, grief, anxiety, depression, and the many life transitions we all encounter. Whether you’re facing a major change, navigating personal challenges, or simply needing space to reflect and regroup, I’m here to walk alongside you. I understand that cost and timing can be barriers to accessing support, but I also believe in the value of early action, reaching out sooner can make a lasting difference to your wellbeing. Over the years, I’ve felt privileged to be invited into people’s lives during times of struggle, growth, and transformation. My approach is grounded in compassion and curiosity, helping clients explore ways to enhance their wellbeing and move forward with confidence. In addition to counselling, I am trained in clinical and professional supervision, offering reflective space for both individual practitioners and groups. Supervision is an opportunity to deepen practice, build insight, and support sustainability in often challenging roles. If you’re looking for a supportive, experienced counsellor or supervisor, either in person or online, I’d be honoured to work with you. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/626339f75164fa73efb23e08/6068de9d-4325-4920-9c2b-8c481c289f30/275124454_109566831675133_7876223507331259592_n.jpg Home (Copy) - It’s your path.

I work with clients experiencing anxiety, stress, relationship difficulties, low confidence, emotional overwhelm, and life changes. My approach is warm, supportive, and non-judgmental. I believe that everyone’s experience is different, so I work collaboratively with each client to understand what they’re going through and find strategies that feel realistic and helpful for them. I draw on approaches such as CBT, DBT-informed strategies, trauma-informed practice, and Motivational Interviewing, while always keeping the client’s individual needs at the centre of our work. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/626339f75164fa73efb23e08/e5b71323-9ebf-48cc-ba3e-fc4419891227/Profile+pic.jpeg Meet your Counsellors Kalyani Vatsala Certified Practicing Counsellor (PACFA) | Registered Creative Arts Therapist (ANZACATA) Master of Creative Arts Therapy (Dance Movement Therapy) - University of Melbourne “Healing doesn’t always depend on having the right words. Sometimes, the body, play, and creativity give us a gentler way in.” About Kalyani Some feelings are complex, overwhelming, or simply hard to articulate. When life transitions, anxiety, or grief leave us feeling untethered, trying to “talk it all out” can sometimes feel limiting. My role is to offer a warm, compassionate, and grounded space where you don’t have to perform or find the perfect words - a place where you can safely feel what you are feeling, with someone steady walking alongside you. I am a Certified Practicing Counsellor and Creative Arts Therapist specialising in Dance Movement Therapy. My experience spans early childhood settings, community wellbeing programs, and aged care, giving me the privilege of supporting people across every chapter of life - from young children navigating big emotional waves, to teens and adults untangling anxiety and life shifts, to older adults moving through grief and loss. How We Work Together: A Truly Personalised Approach Therapy with me is collaborative and always guided by your pace. Depending on what feels most supportive for you on any given day, our sessions can take different shapes: ● Person-Centred & Trauma-Informed Counselling: Deep, compassionate talk therapy that honours your personal story, values, and autonomy. ● Dance Movement Therapy & Somatic Awareness: Gentle, body-based exploration to help release physical tension, regulate the nervous system, and process emotions when you feel “stuck in your head.” ● Creative Arts & Play: Using image-making, metaphor, or creative expression as a gentle pathway to explore emotions that words can't quite capture. (Please note: No artistic or movement skill is ever required. You will never be asked to perform or produce a finished piece. Whether a session is purely talk-based, entirely creative, or a blend of both is always up to you.) Who I Work With & How to Know We’re a Good Fit I welcome clients of all ages and backgrounds. You might find working with me particularly supportive if: ● You are feeling burnt out, overwhelmed, or anxious and conventional talk therapy has felt too analytical or exhausting. ● Your child or teen is experiencing big emotions, behavioural challenges, or school-related stress, and would benefit from play and creative expression rather than sitting through traditional talk sessions. ● You are navigating a significant life transition or loss and want a steady, non-judgemental space to process change. ● You value a balance of warmth, gentleness, and playfulness, where therapy feels human, grounded, and unhurried. https://www.yourpathcounselling.com.au/client-reviews daily 0.75 2026-06-09 https://www.yourpathcounselling.com.au/frequently-asked-questions daily 0.75 2026-06-09 https://www.yourpathcounselling.com.au/services-fees daily 0.75 2026-06-25 https://www.yourpathcounselling.com.au/story daily 0.75 2026-08-15 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/626339f75164fa73efb23e08/20d01a0f-8192-44dd-97e7-33b35cac9006/YPC+Logo.jpg https://www.yourpathcounselling.com.au/story-1 daily 0.75 2026-08-15 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/626339f75164fa73efb23e08/c41ffd2d-b065-47d8-81bf-12d5bed1c6f5/YPC+Logo.jpg https://www.yourpathcounselling.com.au/our-story daily 0.75 2026-08-15 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/626339f75164fa73efb23e08/2ab9cf07-c2e2-42ff-8059-6285d0034675/YPC+Logo.jpg
